“If I take my cruiser and I meet [reluctant witnesses] to talk, eventually they can follow me and say, 'Why were you in a back dark street for 45 minutes?'
What's this guy mean? Does he currently spend time meeting witnesses that his department doesn't know about and wouldn't approve of if they did, or that he somehow needs to keep secret from the rest of the department?
- munin 13y agowhat if there are corrupt cops in your department and they review your cars GPS logs?
- jacalata 13y agoThen when you anonymously speak to a newspaper you might as well say that, right? Unless he assumes everyone already knows that police officers can't trust each other.
- vacri 13y agoI thought the same: say "I was meeting a reluctant witness". His argument sounded more like evasion than reality. I don't see how it's much different to "Why didn't you check in for 45 minutes today?". If you think that corruption is a problem amongst your senior staff and dispatchers, then that's something that needs to be addressed, not hacked around.
